About Jane Hendrickson

“True healing is not physical — it is a spiritual awakening to our True Self. If art is used for that purpose then it can be quite healing as it purifies the mind of thoughts that create disease.” -Judith Cornell.

Jane Hendrickson has learned how to use mandalas for personal insight through her own transformational life experiences. She is using this insight to introduce them to others by sharing the healing benefits of sacred art and meditation.

Licensed healer for the Western States.

Presented courses on the Labyrinth for self development programs at Pima College “Walking a Holy Path”

A brilliant jewel [pearl] is attached to each of the knots that connect the net. Each jewel contains and reflects the image of all of the others jewels in the net which sparkle in the magnificence of its totality.Photo courtesy of Dharmapala Thangka Centre School of Thangka Painting
